Nanoengineering for Green Chemistry and Advanced Materials

The Master's Program in English in Chemistry is aimed at training highly qualified specialists in the field of nano-engineering and is made for those who want to pursue a master degree of world-class science in the Master's program.

A special feature of the master's program is the use of an innovative interdisciplinary approach, namely, a unique combination of the latest information technologies and modern practical methods with the goal of developing innovative materials. The program is based on synergies between experiment and modelling in nanotechnology.

The SCAMT Master's course in English is focused on understanding molecular self-assembly processes and using these processes in the design of functional materials and is dedicated to solving problems arising at the boundary levels of materials research. The main areas of application of the planned approaches will be implemented in new biomedical materials, fuel cells, surfactants and gels, nanocrystals, coatings and films.

The practical component of the master's degree in chemistry is accompanied by a number of theoretical courses from leading scientists specializing in the fields of catalysis, green chemistry, materials science, molecular modeling, sol-gel chemistry and technology.

Evgeny is a physical (inorganic) chemist by training and an active member of the (broad) catalysis community. He is interested in understanding complex reaction networks underlying chemical processes in solution and at interfaces and developing new tools for analyzing such networks and providing guidelines for the experimental studies. He finds particularly exciting such subjects as the selective catalytic hydrogenation, zeolite catalysis, mechanisms of catalytic reactions, organometallic and inorganic functional materials.
